  1. Although users usually think of Python as a procedural and object-oriented language, it actually contains everything you need for a completely functional approach to programming. This article discusses general concepts of functional programming, and illustrates ways of implementing functional techniques in Python. View more content in this series

  2. Functional programming wants to avoid state changes as much as possible and works with data flowing between functions. In Python you might combine the two approaches by writing functions that take and return instances representing objects in your application (e-mail messages, transactions, etc.).

  3. procedural way, using object-oriented programming or applying a functional approach. In this chapter, we explain the core concepts of functional programming in Python and how we develop our applications using this technique.

  4. In a functional program, input flows through a set of functions. Each function operates on its input and produces some output. Functional style discourages functions with side effects that modify internal state or make other changes that aren’t visible in the function’s return value.

  5. In this quiz, you'll test your understanding of functional programming in Python. You'll revisit concepts such as functions being first-class citizens in Python, the use of the lambda keyword, and the implementation of functional code using map (), filter (), and reduce ().

  6. In this document, we’ll take a tour of Python’s features suitable for implementing programs in a functional style. After an introduction to the concepts of functional programming, we’ll look at language features such as iterators and

  7. Functional Programming in Python. Libraries. What is a functional language? The distinctive feature of pure functional languages is their referential transparency. Definition (Stoy, 1977) The only thing that matters about an expression is its value, and any subexpression can be replaced by any other equal in value.
